Grandmother taught Jun to look back, the past is full of tears;

The Emperor must not have an ordinary heart.

In a blink of an eye, it was already March. The birthday was coming up, and Xuan Ye was now 14 years old. His condition was not as good as it used to be, but it was only natural for him to call the Emperor his own government, but he should not be too hasty. He had to make a long plan to keep the imperial report in order. Xuan Ye had been in a bad mood recently, and the only consolations he could offer were Rong'er and their child that would soon be born.

In this world, the emperor came to pay his respects to the empress dowager as usual.

After the emperor had done his ceremonies, the empress dowager pointed to a namelist on the table and smiled at Xuan Ye. "Your majesty, you've come at the right time. This is the roster of the beautiful ladies participating in this year's selection.

Xuan Ye had no interest in the talent show, so he said, "Also according to previous sessions, if Imperial Grandmother sees a suitable card, she will leave it behind. If it is appropriate, marriage will be granted."

The empress dowager shook her head. "Previously, it was because you were young. This year, Your Majesty said that This Dowager would choose your concubine."

"What?" Old Ancestor, this grandson doesn't need to concubine. This grandson already has four, I can't even care about that. " Xuan Ye said without much interest.

"Your Imperial Majesty, This Dowager wants to ask you why you were allowed to marry Hersheri as Empress." the Empress Dowager asked.

"Because Sony is the chief assistant, an important official. After he marries Sony, he will be more loyal to me and will work for me wholeheartedly. Old Ancestor, you were the one who taught your grandson this." Xuan Ye didn't know what his royal grandmother meant by that.

"This... "Royal Grandmother …" Xuan Ye was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Your majesty, tell This Dowager, who do you think she trusts the most?" The Empress Dowager continued to ask.

Kang Xi thought for a while and said in a low voice, "Royal Grandmother, actually, I have thought about this before. In this empire of civil and military affairs, the only person who can make your grandson 100% believe that he is absolutely loyal to me is Sony."

"That's right, because he's not only your subject, he's also your relative. The more family like this, the better for the emperor. Does the emperor understand?" the Empress Dowager asked again.

"Yes, grandson understands." Xuan Ye lowered his head, no longer saying anything.

"Oh, your majesty. Your fourteenth birthday is coming up, but you don't even have the intention of giving up power. This time's talent show is your government." To deal with them, to rope in their subjects, and to support your personal government; this is the best opportunity. The empress dowager stared at Xuan Ye as she spoke seriously.

Raising his eyes to look at her royal grandmother, Xuan Ye said, "Your grandson understands. What royal grandmother said is extremely true. Please arrange it, royal grandmother." Then he lowered his head again.

The Empress Dowager sighed. She still didn't know what her grandson was thinking, so she knew very well. "Your majesty, I am asking you. "Do you like it very much?"

"Yes, I won't hide it from my imperial grandmother. Rong'er is a brilliant genius, and he also has his own thoughts, which can help relieve Zhen's worries. Moreover, sometimes, I feel that Rong'er has the shadow of my imperial grandmother on him." Xuan Ye scratched his head and embarrassedly whispered, "In fact, this grandson had thought that even if Rong'er was by himself to accompany this grandson for the rest of his life, this grandson would still be satisfied."

"Then grandchild, grandma asks you, do you want Rong'er to die or do you want Rong'er to live?" The empress dowager sighed and decided to lead the way.

"Royal Grandmother, are you joking with me? Your grandson wants Rong'er to live. If Rong'er dies, your grandson won't even know how he lived." Xuan Ye didn't know what the empress dowager meant and raised his head to look at her.

"Your Majesty, there are some things This Dowager didn't want to say, but This Dowager doesn't want you to follow in the footsteps of your royal father and your royal grandfather, Taizong." The empress dowager took a long breath and looked at Xuan Ye, saying, "Your majesty, This Dowager really does believe that there is a special trait that runs through the blood of the Xinluo Clan's people called 'passion'. It's used in ordinary households, be good; however, it's a poison that is born in this emperor's household." The empress dowager closed her eyes. Memories of the past came to her eyes one by one. She didn't want to touch it, but she had to touch it for the sake of this' affection '.

Xuan Ye did not say anything. He just looked at the empress dowager and slowly spoke, "Your majesty, you should know that your royal grandfather's most beloved concubine is Chen Consort Hai Lan Zhu, right? This one's older sister. "

Xuan Ye nodded his head and Empress Dowager Tai continued to speak, "At that time, Taizong only doted on Hai Lan Zhu. Although we were sisters, and entered the palace before her, we were not doted on by the emperor. In the imperial palace, everyone was jealous of Hai Lan Zhu, and even our own aunt, the empress Zhe Zhe, was indifferent to her. But the Emperor could not always accompany her. Most of the time, she was lonely and lonely. Lying in solitude, a long backlog. Taizong was also very happy, and immediately decided to confer him the title of Crown Prince. However, his son had only been in this world for two years, and he had already passed on long ago, and now that the child was gone, it meant that the hope for Hai Lan Zhu was gone, a hopeless woman who could not be found in the vicinity. She became more and more depressed, and became ill after a long period of time, and after losing Hai Lan Zhu, he suffered a heavy blow to his spirit. "My body is getting worse and worse. Two years later, I passed away, leaving behind orphans and widows to guard this place."

Xuan Ye listened attentively. He knew that Taizong doted on the Ocean Orchid Pearl, but he wasn't very clear on some of the inside information. Today, he heard it from his imperial grandmother.

The Empress Dowager paused before continuing, "As for your father, my son, Fu Lin, when he left, what kind of mountains and rivers did he leave behind for us? When he ascended the throne at the age of six, this one had taught him with utmost care. This time, he had hoped that he would be able to shoulder the burden of the Great Qing Province. Recalling the past, the empress dowager felt extremely bitter. She had actually felt the urge to cry. She paused for a moment, adjusted her mood, and continued, "Fourteen years old, Fu Lin has done many effective things in his personal government. His achievements are praised by his subject, allowing the new clan to take over the Central Plains. He consolidated the Qing Dynasty and made Jiang Shan happy. After many years of nurturing him, I can see my son's achievements." As she spoke, the empress dowager's tears began to fall. Xuan Ye felt that he could understand her feelings. The image of his father, who had passed away early in his youth, once again appeared before his eyes.

The empress dowager wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and continued, "I am such an excellent son, but since Dong'En'e entered the palace, the emperor has been unable to concentrate on politics. I know he likes Dong'e, and he regards Dong'e as his confidant. Like Hai Lan Zhu, she was lonely in the imperial harem, and sometimes she just thought, how could history be so similar? Dong'e's son died three months after he was born, and it was also an extreme grief for him. After spending three years alone in the palace, she didn't have a son, but she was too depressed to be sick, so she returned to the West as soon as possible. After being persuaded by the ministers, she left with them for just half a year. She doesn't want her mother, and she doesn't want your son, and Dong'e, because your father dotes too much on her, has an impact on the court and the government. Even if she dies, there are rumors that she is a demi-human concubine. " At this point, the empress dowager couldn't hold back her tears any longer. Beside her, her Aunt Su also began to shed tears.

"Royal Grandmother, I understand what you mean." As Xuan Ye listened, he felt his heart turn cold, and he hurriedly tried to console him.

"Your Majesty, This Dowager knows that you like Rong'er, but if Your Majesty hadn't been fortunate enough to have such a benevolent empress, what kind of situation would Rong'er be in now? I ask you, do you want Rong'er to be the second Haylon Pearl? Or the second Dong'En? " The empress dowager composed herself and asked again, "Your majesty, do you imagine Taizong or your father? "This Dowager is old and can't take it anymore. If your majesty can't take down the mountains and rivers of the Great Qing as well, then just let him fend for himself."

"No …" Royal Grandmother, your grandson will not be the same as Royal Father and Royal Grandfather. Your grandson knows that the foundation of our ancestors cannot be destroyed by your grandson's hands. " Xuan Ye knew that the Empress Dowager's words were sincere and reasonable.

"Your majesty, this one will tell you the truth. I also like that girl, Rong'er, but it's not that you don't like her, your grandson has someone he likes. As her grandmother, he's happy, but this one wants you to keep a low profile, moderate, and low profile. It's only because of this that the imperial harem is peaceful. Grandson, you are the emperor, your majesty, not a mortal, and not a normal person. " The empress dowager stared at the emperor and said earnestly.

"Royal Grandmother, everything you say is true. I understand, I will definitely pay attention." Xuan Ye had already understood that if he did not let Rong'er be the second Sea Orchid Pearl and Dong'e's second, then he could not allow her to be isolated from him, and he had to take responsibility for the Great Qing Dynasty.

The reason why I'm telling you all this today is because a new maid is coming in soon. I hope that the emperor can share his favor equally, but what I ask for is only your 'favor' being divided equally. With a prince in the imperial harem, people outside the palace will work even harder. This is government." Your grandfather, Emperor Taiji, married three of our Borzijts. This... It was also a matter of politics. "Heal.

Xuan Ye nodded his head. He truly admired her Royal Grandmother. He clearly knew that his marriage was a political affair. "Cure." Even though he knew that her Royal Grandfather didn't favor her, he still wholeheartedly defended the great Qing Dynasty.

"Yes, your grandson will leave now. Grandmother, take good care of your body. Grandmother understands your painstaking efforts, and your grandson will not let you down." With that, Xuan Ye saluted and left the palace.

The empress dowager spoke softly to Aunt Su, "Su Mo'er, the more you don't want to remember, the more you will remember. Whenever you think about these things, I want to cry." The empress dowager sighed.

"The sufferings of the Old Ancestor, as well as the sufferings he has suffered, are the best known to Su Mo'Er, who has followed you all her life. The person Su Mo'Er respects the most in this life is you." Lama's eyes were still red.

The empress dowager smiled and murmured, "Sometimes, I don't even know what I'm looking for …"
